Did you hear that the theme for June PPU is video games? Ahhhh! I am so excited about this because video games were my life when I was a kid. I know I’m aging myself here, but I remember begging my parents for an NES. They didn’t get us one right away, but when they finally did, it was like my life was made. Prior to that, my brother was obsessed with arcades, so I was all too familiar with hoarding a bunch of coins so we could go to the arcade. For the months of video game inspiration, I have a gorgeous polish to share with you: KBShimmer Insert Coin. Let’s dive right in! Continue reading “KBShimmer Insert Coin – PPU June 2018”

Lollipop Posse Lacquer The Sylvia Plath Quad
Finally Friday is here! I have been looking forward to this day all week because I am going to VEG out this weekend…well, as much as I can while taking care of a parent recuperating from surgery. I still plan to do some blog stuff because it is something that keeps me distracted and helps me relax. I was talking to my friends about how sometimes it feels weird blogging and talking about nail stuff while going through a lot of hardcore stuff in real life, but I will feel forever grateful to have found this outlet. Today I have yet another awesome release to share with you. I am new to Lollipop Posse Lacquer and I was super excited to try them out. I have quite a few pretties to share with you including the Lollipop Posse Lacquer The Sylvia Plath Quad , the May Tarot Shades and two Color4Nails exclusives. Let’s dive right in!

Moo Moo’s Signatures Mythical Paradise Collection
This week has seriously flown by. I think that it’s a combination of me being super busy and super exhausted that has made it seem like it was just Monday. Today I scheduled an appointment with my PCP because I’ve been letting my health take the backseat to all of this messiness around me, and I feel like it’s catching up to me. If we don’t don’t make an effort to take care of our health, things just get infinitely worse. I was thinking today that even though I have a lot of difficult situations to deal with as of late, working on this blog is helping me stay distracted and keep my mind off things. Today I have another great collection to share with you: Moo Moo’s Signatures Mythical Paradise Collection. This collection consists of 5 pastel shades with mixture of 2 beautiful color shifting shimmers including the gorgeous red to green aurora fine shimmer. At the end of my post, I also have the two May Facebook Group Exclusives to share so keep on reading! Continue reading “Moo Moo’s Signatures Mythical Paradise Collection”

Night Owl Lacquer Parks and Recreation Collection
Monday is here again which brings me to a brand new batch of nail goodies to share with you. This past weekend, I swatched about 30 polishes in record time. I felt like a machine! I am really happy that I am 100% caught up on all my swatching commitments, and now I just have to worry about editing/cropping pictures and writing up the posts. I don’t know about you, but I feel like the editing and writing part of blogging is the most tedious and time consuming. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could just polish your nails, take pictures and everything else would just be taken care of? Yeah, Cynthia…keep dreaming! Today I have the Night Owl Lacquer Parks and Recreation Collection to share with you in addition to two lovely Color4Nails exclusive shades. Let’s check out my swatches below.

Bee’s Knees Lacquer Deadpool Collection
Are you all into the superhero genre? I know that I am and have been since I was a child. Was it really appropriate for me to be watching violent action movies at such a young age? Probably not, but I think that I turned out alright. Well, on second thought… To be honest, I am not super familiar with the comic book characters or the movie that this collection is inspired by, but that doesn’t mean that I can’t appreciate the pretty polish. Let’s dive right in so I can show you my swatches of the Bee’s Knees Lacquer Deadpool Collection. Continue reading “Bee’s Knees Lacquer Deadpool Collection”
Moo Moo’s Signatures The Indie Shop Anaheim Trio
The weather has been a little crazy here lately. A couple of days last week it was in the high 80’s/low 90’s, and all of a sudden it’s kind of chilly and windy.

Today I am continuing with my posts leading up to The Indie Shop so today I have another trio to share with you. I have been very impressed with all of the polishes that I have tried from Moo Moo’s Signatures, so I know that you will enjoy these new babies as well. Let me show you some swatches of the new Moo Moo’s Signatures The Indie Shop Anaheim trio below before I let you know what I think. Continue reading “Moo Moo’s Signatures The Indie Shop Anaheim Trio”
Cadillacquer The Indie Shop Anaheim Trio
How’s your week going so far? I know it’s just Tuesday, but suddenly I want the weekend to get here. This past weekend was super tiring because I spent all Saturday with my nephews. I took the for one last shopping trip to Toys R Us since they will be closing all their stores down. Doesn’t that make you sad? I have so many memories of going to Toys R Us as a child that it feels like the end of an era. My nephews love it there too so it’s a shame that they won’t have the same experience that I had. As I mentioned yesterday, I will be sharing a lot of nail polish that will be available at The Indie Shop in the coming weeks. Today I have the Cadillacquer The Indie Shop Anaheim Trio to share with you so let’s get right to it. Continue reading “Cadillacquer The Indie Shop Anaheim Trio”
